Brave man ! Very informative video... Ive just removed a Rover 75 Tourer headlining. I removed all the attachments AND the B pillars thus suspending the headline by the door seals. I must admit that I shouted at the screen when you were pulling out the headlining of the top of the B pillar panels but you removed without incident. Well done. When is Part 2 available ? What sort of sticky glue are you going to use ? My Tourer headlining is on a table in my Mates paintshop in the dry. Any advice from your personal experience would be appreciated. I'm John, proprietor of John's MG Rover parts. Thanks in anticipation..
Thanks for the great comment, I really appreciate it. I should put the items I use in the description! The other parts of the heading job are already on my channel.
Thanks for your Trim-Fix recommendation. I bought 3 tins, 500g. I used 2 tins to lay on a lavish amount of adhesive. The headlining had been replaced at some time and it was dangling like soggy curtains in the middle, extending the full length. ...It was easy to remove the lining from the base, AND...the backing was sponge and undamaged. I started by sticking down the middle, and then after this was stuck down, worked around the sides. Reason being, the middle of the headlining can be subject to tension if you just stick everything and flatten down the middle towards the sides. ANYWAY........IT WORKED....so, I'm Mr. Smartypants. Sidenote....After reattaching the headlining, I read the small print on the tin. It said 'Not suitable for headlinings'. Well....it certainly worked. Thanks for your help. You're a Star. High 5s all round.
